Re: Child Domain access


Hi

Thanks for you explanation Mike,

You wrote...."So you logon TO A PC using a set of credentials from a
particular domain
that can be reached by trust relationships to authenticate your account"

as there is a two way trust between child and parent does this not mean i
should be able to authenticate in the child domain with domain / ent admin
account which exists in the TRUSTED parent domain? If not does this mean if
an administrator creates a child domain he must also duplicate is
domain/enterprise admin account in that domain

apologies if I mis understand....i am doing some reading (just passed MCP in
XP and am studying for 2003 as we speak)

I appreciate youtaking time in explaining this scenario

Regards

Simon
